This is a public event under Chatham House rules – hybrid format.

The ERCST workstream on “EU Climate Policy and Electricity Market” provides analytical input on the interactions between EU climate policy and electricity market. ERCST has developed a framework matrix (Annex 1) for analysing the elements of the EC proposal on electricity market reform through a climate change lens.

Following on this preliminary work, ERCST is now focusing on discrete interaction’s cells of this matrix framework. During our past events, the focus was given to:
1. Short-term pricing mechanisms (both the EU marginal pricing mechanism and emergency market interventions).
2. Medium- (CRMs) to long-term instruments (CfDs, PPAs) and forward markets.

In this coming event, the focus will be given to long-term instruments and their interactions with relevant climate policies (ETS, RED…) to understand how this interaction impact on EU industries’ competitiveness.

This meeting will start by a presentation by ERCST which will provide the discussion background. This will be followed by preliminary remarks the European Commission and the European Economic and Social Committee. Will then follow a panel discussion during which speakers will share their views and provide their opinions. Interventions and debate from the audience will take place during the following Q&A session.
